That is what I would think. Possession is defined as the ball remaining in relative proximity to the robot as the robot moves. If you are sitting in front of the chute, then the ball rolling off the robot is changing proximity and not being moved be the robot. You could look at this as the equivlant of a soccer player stoping a ball with their upper body.
